Whether it's covering human trafficking in Mexico or running a multi-million dollar international business as a finance executive, Codie Sánchez Baker knows what it takes to blaze the trail for yourself.

When Codie isn't presenting to pensions, government and sovereign wealth funds, she's running one of her startups, consulting with the companies she angel invests in, or running her motivational and business building company. She's been featured on The Today Show, Fast Company, People en Espanol and Huffington Post to name a few.

She believes if we can increase the number of diverse individuals and minorities in positions of power we will have a healthier society and greater equality.
